I started making this recipe when I began dating my husband. We would go apple picking every year and I would make this out of tradition for dinner that night.
We would then eat this for breakfast, lunch and dinner…and as a snack in between! It really is that good! I haven’t stopped making this and have now included our kids in the fall food fun.
The only thing I did different this year was make this pie keto friendly. Both my husband a kids said this was the best version of my cheesy apple and sausage pie. I’ll take it! This fall pie is healthy comfort to the core. Every bite will remind you why this season is such a fabulously delicious time of the year.
